Hello Everyone,
In this video we take a thorough look at how to treat ich in fish and clear it quickly. We will also look at why I have chosen certain treatment methods. We recently had an ich outbreak in a fish tank and I was able to treat it quickly, which resulted in the fish eliminating their white spots within four days!
